Smile Hello everyone

Hello ladies,

I really hope things have been going okay in my absence ......have been extremely busy with mom n my work and managing the house.

Mom s done with her six chemos(cant believe that) and is on her 08th Herceptin now !!!!

Thing is she is on Femara for two months now since the chemo has ended,Its that she is getting terrible pain in her legs since the past week or so(the Femara,i know) Her oncologist has asked for a bone density scan before her next Herceptin cycle...

I am just very worried Does this mean her calcium level is dangerously low ????? something I should worry about ????? Please do advise ....
